hey everyone. I'm creating a new pokemon game, but sticking to the original theme (8/16 gym leaders, elite 4, pokemon from the first 3 generations, etc.) The only thing I'm making up is the map, town names, and gym leaders. Aside from that, everything (pokemon names, pokemon looks, map and game sprites, etc.) is as it always has been in the older games. I'm using sprites from Fire Red/Leaf Green, and Ruby/Sapphire.
So this is where you come in. I need help coming up Town names, Gym leader names, and any secret/hidden places that should be thrown in there.
In general, what is something you've always wanted to see/do in a Pokemon game?
[Also, if you want to become an NPC/Gym leader yourself, let me know. I'll make a character with your name. Just let me know what type of pokemon you would have, and which ones they are]
If its online, then a market where you could trade rare (custom) items or even trade rare & common pokemon for money or other pokemon, just like an auction. For towns i have loads of strange town names in my head like Tuneron, Euris, Utus ect..
Go right ahead, theres loads more were that came from. Ask me if you would like me to do anything, im really looking forward to this project. Add me on Msn =D
Anything but byond bro :/ The movements are jerky and make the otherwise well made games boring. If all you're doing is changing the map names and trainer names, then the project isnt worth it bro.
Pokemon MMOs is something you need a large team trk on. Spriters, programmers, map makers, coordinators, etc etc is just the basics of what you'd need to create a semi-successful pokemon game.

I've LOVE to use anything but Byond, but its easy to code with and get a general idea of what I want it to look like, and I've gotten a few people trk with me.
But I don't know quite enough VB to make an a game like that. lol this is the most I did on VB YouTube - Ronin
that'd be useful. Would you be willing to share? lol
Haha, I would let you join as a map maker. Which truthfully is a high rank in the system. There is a program that you open that has all the tiles all you need to do is select a tile and then place it on the map. You can save the map and it will work with the client.
And I've built both the client and server for my MMO Version of Pokemon. And no I am sorry I am not just going to give away my work to the public so everyone can claim they built there own game.
You will never get the real Pokemon experience from a clean version of ECLIPSE/Byond/Crystal.
Because you do not have that truly flexible engine core. And if I am right I think they are coded in VB6 which does not support multi-threading which will lead to massive amount of lag for the end-user.

I have VB8. If you need a mapper, I can do that. Mapping is my Forte. I'm a good iconner also if you end up needing one of those.
I'm not useful in the coding department, however, I can usually come up with rather creative ideas. PM or IM me if you need ideas for cities, new mechanics, people etc.
Nice. I'll happily be a beta/alpha tester as well.
Town names?
Okinru
Gaoki
Ruten
Doyan
I just hit random keys and changed them a bit.. Feel free to use those random names..
Also, have a 'secret' island at the corner of the map, only accessable using a very complex TM combination.. And there will be, I dunno, heapsa strong/weak pokemon..
And have another secret base thingie, that was fun. But make it so you can 'upgrade' it, adding another floor, stringing to the next tree, etc.
To be able to have not one, but a few pokemon follow you around, That would be cool . Also you can just take any Japanese/Spanish/English word, add some letters or another word, and put the word city after it. They do this in many of the games: Snowpoint city in diamond/pearl/platinum. There's snow, it's next to a mountain I believe, the word city. Ok done. Not much imagination put into these cities.
Can I be a elite 4 leader Possibly legendary leader Like the last elite four leader but I have legends and when you beat me you get a legendary Darkrai
Also I'll beta test as I have made a game before Raivu Pm me Ill give a good pokemon designer better than eclipse
